More of March

 Since Memaw was off of work for spring break, she came and watched Bliss for 2 days in Lubbock while my mom took a little Spring Break of her own to visit Haley and Ben. I love this pic of both of them.

Bliss had a great time having Memaw all to herself. She took her to the park by our house, and let her play on her little playset in the backyard in her swimsuit. Don't you just want to squeeze those little legs?????!!!!

While Clint and I went to a Couple's Shower in Austin for our friends Courtney and Benton, Bliss hung out with her cousins. Making cookies with Memaw and Brylen (She is actually completely infatuated with a cow bell that hangs from Pops and Memaw's ceiling in the kitchen, as you can see here0.

We also went to the ranch with my family. For some reason, I didn't get a great pic of Bliss, but I love this picture of Haley, Tatum, and Piper on the 4-wheeler.

Baby Showers and Tea Parties

 Our sweet friends from college, Brooke and Erick are expecting their first baby, HUDSON!!! We are so excited for them and think that Hudson is a pretty lucky little guy already to have such neat parents! Brooke had a shower this month in Austin, and Bliss and I got to go!

I had a really cute outfit for Bliss picked out . . . which she shortly blew out after we got there. :)
Luckily, the shower was at Erin and Addison's house! We have been so excited to meet Addison. Erin and i go way back, and I just love her! Interestingly, in college, people used think Erin and I resembled each other. I think our bald, bright blue-eye girls are continuing that on for us.  Addison is just 3 weeks younger than Bliss, and she graciously lent us an outfit. Thanks Addison!

We were also super excited to meet Layla Jane! I felt like I knew Layla before I ever met her. She is very warm and sweet like her mommy. She was good with Bliss and clearly going to be a great big sister soon! Baby Ellis actually has the same due date as Bliss had (5/20), although, luckily, we didn't quite make it :) . After the shower, we hung around just to meet up with them. Lauren is another great Lubbockite turned Austinite. Our families have been close for a long time. We used to be in the same Indian Princess tribe (Chaktaw) with our dads and loved to meet up to eat Mexican food. Maybe next Austin visit, we can start that tradition up with our kiddos!

Back in Lubbock, Bliss joined Tatum for a tea party.

Tatum making sure Bliss is all put together like a lady.

Luke, already not loving the rules of proper etiquette, making off with the spoon like a little puppy dog.
